Bloody hell, very impressive..... but well i think Jabbas are already impressive enough, and if i had my choice i'd probably spend the money on a decent projector/ screen to watch my vids on....... prbably cos i'm not a PC gamer.... the only game i'm playing at the moment is Football manager 2005 and for that these would be a little overkill


BTW Jabba... could you post these other similar systems you said about?

Cheers Jabba indeed very 8) and neatly pacakged screens They seem to be aimed at stock market traders.. My favourite system is described as "The Ultimate trading and monitoring display"

Its clear its real purpose is for watching 8 different Top Gear, 5th gear, Porn (delete as applicable) videos at once

You are so right there...four screens takes quite a bit of time to get used to...anymore and it would start to become in-practical....unless you have two heads, four eyes or a very, very long neck.....

That is a very cool looking setup, but I agree. The system that Jabba is using right now is just about perfect. Anymore than that and it starts to become more of a problem than its worth.

Unless you wanna watch dvds on your comp and run all the screens as one, that would be pretty cool.
